Composite Floor Decking
Our
floor decking boasts of an interlocking feature, which makes it an
efficient and cost-effective option in multi-storey buildings wherever
a high strength concrete floor is required.
The decking is normally
fastened to the supporting beam by arc spot welding or by shooting
steel pins with washers.
Standard concrete is poured onto the decking, and wire mesh is used
as an optional requirement to minimise surface cracking due to shrinkage.
After the concrete attains the proper strength the full live load
is shared by the steel and concrete in a highly efficient manner.
Compared to other floor decking systems,
Caribbean Steel Mills' system saves on time and eliminates the need
for sealing of the flooring below.
Caribbean Steel Mills decking is zinc-coated, which affords a high
level of corrosion resistance and conforms to ASTM specifications.
